Sustainability
Sustainable and ethical products.
Carbon neutral production: The study was performed in accordance with the main principles of ISO 14040 and ISO 14044.
All waste flows of the production phase are re-used. The wood for the material comes from the certified forests in Finland. We use EKOenergy and electricity from own solar panels. Heating of the factory is performed using waste heat flows and carbon neutral electricity.
Each item ages beautifully yet keeping its qualities. You can check how fresh the product is from its wooden scent – the stronger the scent, the newer the product!
At the end of their long-life span, the products can be recycled, incinerated for heat energy, or returned to the manufacturer for re-use.
Ferrocerium-rod makes the firemaking possible even in the rain as it works wet as well. You get a good grip from the handle of the Firesteel and water won't make it slick.
The curved handle that fits every hand ensures the exceptionally good grip. You can get a sturdy grip also with the gloves on so no cold fingers even in freezing temperatures.
The reindeer leather cord tied in the handle offers extra-support and keeps the striker on hand.
